Chicken Tortilla Soup

It's hot as hell. Nobody wants to turn on the oven when it's 100 degrees.  This is one of my favorite recipes as it is so tasty and incredibly easy.  I know that soup isn't what most people want in the summer but it is so light and refreshing that it's totally worth it.

 1 (15 ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes, mashed
 1 (10 ounce) can enchilada sauce
